Find conditional probability that atleast one child is boy


A family has two children. What is the conditional probability that both are boys given that at least one of them is a boy? Assume that the sample space S is given by S = {(b, b), (b, g), (g, b), (g, g)}, and all outcomes are equally likely. [(b, g) means, for instance, that the older child is a boy and the younger child a girl.]
